Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Chapter 127: Beating People to Grab Leftovers

"What? The Prince of Penglai doesn't want to enter the city, and he wants you to bring his leftover food?"

On the city wall, Chang Hongbo, who was waiting for news, turned pale when he heard what the two generals said.

Not wanting to enter the city means Chu Ning wants to fight me to the end.

The remaining food was sent to him, which was intended to mock the fact that Ben would not eat it.

You are so good, Chu Ning. Since you are so ungrateful, don’t blame me for being ruthless!

"Someone, take these things and dump them out!"

Chang Hongbo snorted coldly, pretending to be generous, and waved his hand to signal Chen An to throw away the food.

But Chen An's face changed slightly when he heard this. He hesitated for a moment and said, "General, there is a lot of meat here."

As he spoke, Chen An waved his hand and asked the soldiers below to bring up the food.

On the tray, a half-eaten roast chicken and four untouched dishes instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Everyone present was a general who had experienced many battles. They had not eaten meat for half a year, and suddenly seeing these dishes, their appetite was aroused.

Even the defenders on the city wall had no time to take care of their posts and cast envious glances.

In their hearts they even wished that Chen An would throw away the dishes immediately so that they could pick them up and have a meal.

Although it is a bit embarrassing, having meat to eat is better than going hungry.

At this moment, Chang Hongbo also noticed the gazes of the crowd, and his face darkened: "So what if there is meat? Haven't you ever eaten meat?

When the food and military pay arrive, I will let you eat as much as you want!"

Chang Hongbo knew that Chu Ning brought food and military pay this time.

As long as these things arrive, he won’t have to be controlled by Chu Ning!

The reason why they are still so polite to Chu Ning now is because the food and military pay have not been obtained yet. Once they get them, they can find any excuse to send Chu Ning to fight and die!

But at this moment, the soldiers around looked at each other, and no one was willing to give up the half chicken and four dishes in front of them.

That’s meat!

God knows how much they drooled when they saw these dishes.

It's such a pity that it was lost like this.

Chen An smiled awkwardly: "General, if you don't want to eat it, why don't you give it to me? It will not be in vain for me to come here for this trip."

My goodness, this guy has lost all his dignity just to eat Chu Ning’s leftovers.

But Wu Lin on the side nodded and agreed: "Yes, General, we finally got some meat. The brothers haven't eaten meat for many days. Don't throw it away. It's a pity."

If there is a chance to get a share, he and Chen An will definitely have one.

This dish must not be thrown away.

Chang Hongbo was very angry at what the two said. His eyes flashed with a cold light. He stared at the two people and said coldly: "Are you questioning my decision?"

"I dare not!" The two men knelt down on the ground quickly.

Chang Hongbo snorted coldly: "You say you don't dare, but you actually want to eat other people's leftovers. People like you who say one thing and mean another are not qualified for such a big responsibility!

Come, take these two away and give them twenty heavy punishments!"

As soon as these words came out, Chen An and the other man's faces changed drastically, and they kowtowed and begged for mercy: "General, please forgive me, General, please forgive me!"

But Chang Hongbo was extremely determined. He waved his right hand and soldiers immediately rushed up and pulled the two men down.

"Ah~" accompanied by screams, the two men were beaten with twenty military sticks each.

Afterwards, the two were dragged in front of everyone like dead dogs. At this moment, their buttocks had been beaten to a bloody mess. They looked just like Chang Zhengyang just now, very miserable.

Chang Hongbo looked at the two generals who were wailing non-stop, and then he said coldly: "Do you still want the leftovers of the Penglai County King?"

"No... no more."

"I will never dare to do that again."

The two generals dared not say anything more and just lay on the ground weakly and compromised.

Although they were resentful in their hearts, Chang Hongbo had the final say here, and they did not dare to refute at this moment.

Chang Hongbo snorted coldly and said, "You are so shameless to eat this food given to you out of pity. Come on, take the leftovers with you. I will not allow any of you to eat the leftovers of others!"

After saying this, Chang Hongbo left with his personal guards and Chu Ning's remaining food.

Everyone at the scene looked at each other, and then helped the two generals up from the ground.

"General Chen, are you okay?"

"Alas, the cavalry general was too cruel. How could he beat his own people like this when facing a powerful enemy?"

"Who says it isn't?"

"I don't know what the General will do with the leftover food."

Everyone was talking about it, but Chen An gritted his teeth, stared at the direction where Chang Hongbo left, and said with hatred on his face:

"He is just seeking revenge for personal gain. His son was beaten up, and he doesn't dare to fight back, so he can only take it out on us!"

Wu Lin was also desperate at this moment, his eyes blazing with fire as he said, "He must have given the leftovers of His Highness to his son!"

Everyone was silent.

Chang Zhengyang was beaten today and needs good things to replenish his body, but there is no food left in Dingxiang City, so where can he find good things?

But now the leftover food that Chu Ning had eaten was different. There was not only chicken, but also meat!

But everyone knew this, but no one dared to speak out.

Two generals have already been beaten. If they tell this, they will definitely be targeted by Chang Hongbo.

For a moment, everyone was silent and dared not say anything. They could only persuade the two generals to go back and rest first, as it was important to take care of their health.

At this moment, Chang Hongbo returned to the mansion with his guards and personally brought the food into the house.

"Ah~ Be gentle, it hurts!"

As soon as he entered, Chang Hongbo heard his son's screams.

On the bed, a military doctor was constantly applying medicine to Chang Zhengyang. The medicine was applied to the wound, causing Chang Zhengyang to grimace in pain.

Chang Hongbo went forward to take a look and found that his buttocks were beaten and bleeding, and his clothes and pants were all stained red.

This scene made Chang Hongbo's face extremely gloomy. He only had this one son, and he never expected that he would be beaten like this in front of him today.

"Father, you must avenge me!" Chang Zhengyang shouted when he saw his father coming back.

Chang Hongbo stepped forward, waved his hand to dismiss the doctor, and comforted him in a deep voice: "Don't worry, your father will settle this account with him sooner or later!"

After that, he brought Chu Ning the remaining food: "This is what your father got for you, you should eat it quickly to replenish your body."

Looking at the roast chicken and four dishes in front of him, Chang Zhengyang's eyes lit up: "Father is still good to me, but where did these things come from?"

The city has been plundered countless times by me and my men. Where did my father get all this?

Chang Zhengyang was very curious.

But Chang Hongbo had no intention of explaining. He snorted coldly, "Just eat. Why are you caring so much?"

After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked out: "Father has other things to take care of. When you finish eating, call the servants to clean up."

With such tempting food in front of him, he would probably swallow his saliva if he stayed.

Chang Zhengyang did not suspect anything, and quickly picked up the chopsticks, lay on the bed and started to eat voraciously.

But what they didn’t know was that Chu Ning knew everything that happened in the city!
